I don't indulge in either spelling or grammar flames, but I'll mention the two I see most frequently:

People writing "discrete" when they mean "discreet".

People using "I" instead of "me" in prepositional case, e.g. "The book was given to John and I," or "The dinner was hosted by Jean and I."

I know my typing skills well enough to know that at times I am GOING to transpose a letter or two.. and I have said in the past: deal with it.. I am not going to backspace 15 sentences to realign an 'I' and a 'T'.

I know I tend not to use punctuation.

HOWEVER, at least I am clear in what I am saying (well, except when I am tired...but oddly, usually that STILL seems to make sense to most..).. if I scan and see that the typo/transposition in some way interferes with what I am saying, I will fix it.

I *try* to extend that same attitude towards others...

but when they constantly make egregious typing errors and say (in essence) "fuck you, you all suck!!!"

yeah..no quarter from here..

at least make an effort, FFS.

and when the errors are so CONSTANTLY and obviously interfering with the communication...   consider getting Dragon, or whatever that voice recognition typing prog is!!

I used to come here and post after twelve hour shifts that were overnights.  I'd be bone tired but not able to go to sleep until I had My winding down period.  I'm more than willing to forgive the occasional typo.  I have no problem with anyone having the occasional bad day. 

I think we're on the same page.  I'll look over a lot of things (even cats on the keyboard [;)]) but lack of effort or attention to detail on a constant basis?  No.
